			     INTRODUCTION			(INT)
============================================================================

Sam&Max : Hit the Road was a great adventure game issued in the early '90s, 
where the player guided Max in an adventure which would lead them to save 
the american population of Big-Footsand to destroy half of the country. If 
i'm not mistaking it should be an abandonware by now, so get your chances 
to play it.

Unfortunately no sequels of the game were made, until Lucasarts said it was 
working on Sam&Max : Freelance Police, a project that was abandoned without 
any good reason. Telltale acquired the rights and, together with Steve Purcell, 
the creator of Sam&Max, decided to be a lead in the path of episodic 
videogames. Through Gametap or their website people can bay Culture shock or 
the whole first season, made of 6 episodes with an underground plot which will 
be published from December 2006 to June 2007, one every month.

As it is a spoiler-free walkthrough I will not tell you what the story is 
about.But I'll give you an advice : the game is Short, so take advantage of 
it by clicking on EVERY SINGLE OBJECT you can interact with. If this game 
is fun,why should someone spoil it by hurrying to the end ?

===============================================================================
			CONTROLS AND INTERFACE			(CTRL)
===============================================================================

As much as the game can be fun, it is unfortunately too easy. The inventory is 
in the lower-left corner, symbolysed by a box. Click on the box to display it. 
Click on an object to select it and click on a hotspot to use the object with 
that hotspot (if possible, of course). Do not try to combine the objects : you 
simply can't. On the upper-left corner is the menu (a small wheel). Click on 
the wheel to display it.

In the car section you'll have to the left a GUN, a MEGAPHONE and a HORN. Using 
the gun will slow you down and you won't be able to steer, so choose the 
appropriate time. the MEGAPHONE is theway you stop the other cars. I couldn't 
find a practical use for the HORN. I mean, it's just a horn...

---Stopping Brady Culture--1.4-------------------------------------------------

Take an ADMISSION FORM.

Use the DESOTO and select "LET'S HEAD BACK TO THE OFFICE".

Enter SYBIL'S and talk to SYBIL

Here it gets complicated, because the three symptoms may change. INKBOLTS 
refer to the first symptom, FREE ASSOCIATION to the second, DREAM ANALYSIS 
to the third.

INKBOLTS : -MONEY : 	Select 1,3,2,1,4, which is PENNIES, SUV, UNCLE LOUIE'S 
			WALLET, ELEPHANTS, DEBIT CARD.
	   -FAME : 	Select 3,2,4,2,1, which is SUSAN LUCCI, PIGEONS, 
			AUTOGRAPH, CHEERING CROWD, BLOTCHY THING.

FREE ASSOCIATION : 	When Sybil says a word connected to the symptom (i.e. 
			"crown", "drill" or "polish" for dentistry, "comb" or 
			"dryer" for hair styling) use the GUN on her. Using it 
			with another word makes you fail the test. I don't know 
			how much this is true but generally the second word is 
			associated with dentistry and the third with hair styling.

DREAM ANALYSIS :	If the symptom is about marriage, choose a WEDDING CAKE 
			in the DONUT BOX. If it is about getting old, a BIRTHDAY 
			CAKE. If it is about your mother, choose ? as SYBIL. If 
			it is about your peer, choose ? as MAX. I don't think 
			there is any other combination.

Click on the EXIT DOOR and use the DESOTO. Select "BRADY CULTURE'S "HOME" FOR 
FORMER CHILD STARS".

Click on the EXIT DOOR. Use the DESOTO. Click on the GATE.

Click on the SODA POPPERS.

Select "BECOME..." and "BECOME... BRADY CULTURE!"

Click on the SODA POPPERS.

Select "WORSHIP..." and "WORSHIP... ME!"

Click on the SODA POPPERS.

Select "ATTACK..." and "ATTACK... ME!"

That's the end of Sam&Max : Culture Shock. But the ending movie makes 
you wonder about the Episode 2 : Situation Comedy...
